Choosing Next Zone

[morkai]

Hi All,

I'm new to eq and have made it to level 17 on my Mage. I've had a blast in Crushbone grouping with people, however I think it's time to think about moving on to another zone. That said, what zone would you all recommend for a similar party oriented experience that Crushbone offered?

Thank You

[Thrombosis]

Unrest would be my suggestion, or Oasis.

Befallen is wonderful for a couple levels.

[Voland]

Najena is fun too.

[Wallicker]

Unrest and upper guk

Unrest will assuredly have the most population. Once you hit the lower 20s try mistmoore or high hold keep goblins for a change of pace.

IF you want to solo and not group, that link is great for exploring and finding a more unique hunting spot. But if you want to follow in (at least somewhat) established trails I'd recommend instead the Per-Level Hunting Guide (link in signature). It even has filters that let you see only classic spots, or see places specifically recommended for mages.

Meanwhile for grouping there's the http://wiki.project1999.com/Group_Hunting_Spots page ... but it's just a shell compared to the Per-Level (solo/duo/trio) hunting guide. Hopefully someday people will help fill it in more, and even now it might give you some ideas.

P.S. If you do want to solo, one suggestion (from the Per-Level guide, but I can personally vouch for it) is the Shralok Orc camp (http://wiki.project1999.com/Shralok%20Orcs) in Kithicor. Now on Green/Teal there is a brief period of time when you can do them 24/7, but soon the "bloody Kithicor" patch will make them only exist half the time, being replaced with high level undead at night.

If you want zones with decent xp and enough people to find a group in, head to Unrest and then Upper Guk. Mistmoore xp is garbage comparatively, and the zone is underpopulated when it comes to players, so finding a group can be futile. Go back and forth between Unrest and Upper Guk until 30, then try Sol A and Highkeep.

Highpass gnolls are decent exp, fun, and good drops (scalps + Cracked Darkwood Shield + PGT).
